Reunion~ By Darcy Wright

Martinis on a veranda
Followed by dinner for two
At a slender restaurant
Overlooking the sea.
Mahi-mahi with pilaf
On cobalt plates.
You used to show
Adore with a blush.
Tears never sooth suffering--
They enhance it.
Is what we have left
Beyond repair?
We watch couples
Parade the boardwalk
Leashed to mutts.
Take me far away 
From this place 
Of broken dreams.
Carry me in your arms.

Oustanding verse! What I like is how the narrator is keeping hope alive in a relationship that seems to be going through a series of ups and downs and that 'slender restaurant' line is a real keeper. Keep on writing poetry, we need poets like you out there.
